For more than 15 years, LRCCP has been involved as a partner or (legal and insurance) valuer for litigation, either legal or friendly, as technical support for manufacturers. On average, it carries out 200 interventions of this kind every year.

Besides activities in the field of expertise, LRCCP assists manufacturers in preventive approach as well.

Analytical approach Investigation methods

Preliminary survey on the surroundings of the deficient part and its functionality

Morphological and macroscopic observation of sampled areas

Analysis and characterization to check material compliance

Simulation tests
on suspect conditions of use

Multidisciplinary approach on samples: deficient / new / correct wear indicator
mechanical

physico-chemical

processing

 
Inventories using macrographic pictures
Analysis of chemical composition of materials (formulation, degradations, curing degree)
Examination under scanning electron microscope (defects, voids, fractography facies)
Physical and chemical tests (tensile, impact, dynamic, viscosimetry)
Modelling of mechanical behaviour and re-design calculation
Simulation of behaviour in service using specific test benches
